Cats of the Ming Dynasty is a hidden object game where you locate 600 individually hand-drawn cats scattered across six historical levels set in ancient Suzhou. Each cat responds uniquely when clicked, and the varied art style keeps the search engaging without frustration. It's a short, relaxing experience ideal for players who appreciate detailed illustration and feline charm over challenging gameplay.

About this game

What players are saying

▲ Recommended 1 hrs
1+ hours to complete, Cats of the Ming Dynasty is a Hidden object game with 600 cats over 6 levels. Impressively, no cat is copy/pasted and I did not note any duplicates. They purr when your mouse brushes them, clicking them gifts you with a wide variation of meows, and with multiple sizes, shapes, poses, and types of cats, it’s difficult to feel bored – especially once you realize the entire game takes place on a famous variation of the 1085-1145 CE, 5.25 meter (17ft) long painting “Ming Dynasty along the River During the Qingming Festival”, essentially meaning you are playing a Cat HOG on what is basically considered China’s version of the Mona Lisa in high definition.

Yes, the reason this game needs 4GB of space on your computer is because someone scanned the entire 17ft long silk painting in such high quality you can see the texture of the fabric it’s made on, digitally touched it up and meticulously hid 600 cats in it, then sold it on the Steam store for less than 1 USD. Clicking on the title screen in-game grants you access to the entire original scanned painting that you can zoom in and out of, without the cats. This game is absolutely worth the purchase price.

Lovely cat searching game with wonderfully detailed cats, pleasant music and no penalty for hints. Very nice.

It's probably one of the better cat-seeking games you can get. As usual, short with about an hour of playtime, it's very detailed and pleasant to the eyes, while also not being hard since the art mostly has full-sized cats and not vague shapes. The game has 6 levels and 600 cats in total to find.

I really enjoyed this game. The art was what drew me to it in the first place, and I was not disappointed; it's gorgeous! To make it even better, all of the cats actually look like cats, so finding them is not a chore. Cats meow when you find them, which is adorable; however, it was funny (and weird) that pandas also meow when you find them. There are random hints that make cats wiggle, so that makes it easier to find the last missing cats. You can also pet the cats with your cursor, and they purr. :)
